Nyxeros Athanasius has reigned as Lord of Night for centuries. Time, however, has left an void within him, a silent yearning for the missing half of his soul. Then, like a beacon in the darkness, he finds her: Amara Amery.
Two months have slipped by since their first meeting, yet grief's cruel grasp holds Amara captive. The loss of her love has shattered her, leaving behind a echo of the woman she once was. Her spirit wanes, adrift in sorrow, her destiny as the promised queen of Aetheria looming large.
Nyxeros brought her to Aetheria after the battle of Windsear Valley, unveiling a whole kingdom she never knew existed. With the magic of Aetheria having awakened her dormant fae blood, Amara is revealed as the formidable Equinox fae, a fae of both night and day, of light and shadow. Yet, her heart remains ensnared by grief, her potential as queen stifled by it's weight.
will Amara rise from the ashes of her pain to claim her crown? Can she muster the strength to embrace her destiny, or will grief drown her light forever?
Will Nyxeros be her salvation, guiding her back to herself and their shared destiny? Or will he lose her to the shadows, the cruelest twist of fate tearing them apart just as they've found one another?
In a tale woven with passion and peril, Nyxeros Athanasius must fight not only for his realm but for the heart of the woman he calls his queen. Their journey teeters on the edge of despair and hope, a dance of darkness and light where every choice could mean salvation or ruin.
